Weekend Tidbits

Sharing with you a few snaps I took from the weekend. It was filled-to-brim as usual but my most fave was the just-us-three portion. We tagged along Dada to his swing practice and got a whiff of fresh air. Someone had a whale of fun trying her hand in putting. 

Famished from the (short) walk and the unforgiving heat, we headed out to Wine Depot Cafe for some lunch capped off with this Vittoria Affogato you ought to try.

Happy Weekend

'Hope its not too late to wish you a happy weekend. Half of it is gone just like that but we are having a light one starting off with some cheese shopping this morning. Jindi Brie for soft and Covap Semi Curado for hard are the usual frontrunners. Cheese oh cheese... they'e not exactly the healthiest of indulgences but can sure easily make our weekend. 

Happy Weekend!

I bookmarked Joanna Goddard's guide to a perfect cheese plate, hoping to use it one day. She gave useful tips, cheese recommendations, and pairings. And as I love myself a cheese, I plan to throw a small cheese party someday. But before anything else, I have to get myself a cheese cutter and some cheese knives. And of course, I've got to know my cheese!

Thus, taking this slight cheese obsession further has gotten me to sign up for an afternoon of cheese with cheese master Neil Willman on June 4 at Wine Depot Reposo. Let's see how that goes.

What are your plans this weekend lovelies? Here's to wishing it involves some wine and cheese (perhaps paired with walnuts, fresh grapes, crackers, and sour dough baguette)!

{A Few} Snaps from the Weekend

Our weekend was mellow and we liked it that way. We didn't have plans, we didn't make plans. We mostly stayed in, had a movie marathon (something we haven't done in a really looooong time), and just had some plain old weekend slow down.

I picked up this bottle of Chardonnay from Wine Depot for its tongue-in-cheek logo. (I'm one of those who gets easily sold to nice packaging). Luckily our 'accomplice' was not bad. Not bad at all that hubby and I finished the bottle over one movie.

We promised her a trip to the stables to see the horses but after 2 failed attempts, we gave in to her request to ride the train. Glee plastered all over her little face. 

To cap off the mellow weekend, we tried the new resto in town, 2nd's. Still on dry run but it wasn't bad. Food was good, portions were big, prices slightly on the high side, service was impeccable.

 We'll most likely go back.

The weekend that was. 'Hope yours was wonderfully mellow too.
